Brad Pitt was a great choice for the part but come on an Oscar? In my opinion his New Orleans accent attempt was terrible and as he progressed in to his younger years in the movie he sounded retarded.

I was thinking about this just last week. I already knew Brad Pitt would not be the Button body for at least half the film, so I wondered how that might play into his Oscar chances. I think it will probably have somewhat a negative effect, not that I think Brad has much of a chance to begin with. No diss to Brad and all, but his acting is kinda all over the board. Sometimes he’s good (12 Monkeys, A River Runs Through It) sometimes he’s bad (The Devil’s Own, Seven Years in Tibet) but most of the time he’s just ‘meh’ in my book. Granted most of his movies I like alot (and own), but it’s usually never due strictly to Brad’s acting. Button seems to be no different. Like with Meet Joe Black (a movie I’ve already mentioned resembles Button and that I love), the way he plays the death character is just, well, odd, and almost comes off as bad acting. I’m not expecting Button to be any revelation in terms of Brad’s acting either, and history supports me. Everyone thought he’d get a nom for Babel, nope…and for Assassination, nope..in fact I think he’d have a better chance of getting a supporting nod for his comedic turn in Burn After Reading if he wasn’t soooooo into it. What I mean is the character is just too one note and extreme, unlike Jeffrey Goines in 12 Monkeys.
